Thanks. The one Bastuck is selling appears to be the 'upgraded' pump 
AHSpares is selling.

It appears my pump is OK, the pulley had just come loose. Thanks for the 
tips, guys.

AsI recall Moss is or was selling "Upgraded" water pumps.
Does anyone know what the "upgrade" consists of?
Bob, if you buy one I hope you will post what your appraisal and experience
with the part is--for now I have come to0 regard the pumps we are offered
as "wear items".

Michael,

The 'upgraded' pump sold by Moss, Bastuck and BPN all appear to be the same:

https://www.bpnorthwest.com/water-pump-uprated-bn1-to-bn2.html

(if you look close you can see '--STUCK' on the pump body)

Claims '30% more flow,' BUT--there's always a 'but'--per the Moss 
catalog it will not fit the OEM brass heater line valve/nipple. The 
cheaper one Moss sells supposedly does, but best I can tell it's a 
County product. I've bad experiences with County, but both Tom Monaco 
and David Nock say they have fit many with no issues.

The new one from AHSpares appears to be different, but also comes with a 
barbed nipple:

https://www.ahspares.co.uk/austin-healey/big-healey/cooling-heating-cht101-to-cht147/premium-water-pump-new-with-34-pulley.aspx

I started to remove my pump, but found the pulley was loose; pump 
appears to be OK.

Bob

Bob--

Thanks and in checking the Moss catalogue this morning I see that in fact
they do sell the two side-by-side as you state at $96.00 and $163.00
respectively.  That is an 80% increase in price for the "upgraded" pump and
I must wonder what the pump achieves--and how it does it--to justify such
an increase.  "Upgrade" might have several meanings and given the
propensity of these pumps to fail, perhaps the term describes longevity
versus performance, with a better-quality seal.  OTOH if the upgrade is in
performance that usually means increased water flow.  Unless the outer
housing is substantially larger the cast-in "fins" on the internal impeller
cannot be that much larger and so I wonder how such an increase would be
achieved.

Just sayin'....

            &#39;upgraded&#39; pump AHSpares is selling.<br>
            <br>
            It appears my pump is OK, the pulley had just come loose.

In my experience "upgraded" is another way of saying " we didn't want to
pay for the tooling for an accurate reproduction ".

  Thanks and in checking the Moss catalogue this morning I see that in fact
  they do sell the two side-by-side as you state at $96.00 and $163.00
  respectively.  That is an 80% increase in price for the "upgraded" pump
  and I must wonder what the pump achieves--and how it does it--to justify
  such an increase.  "Upgrade" might have several meanings and given the
  propensity of these pumps to fail, perhaps the term describes longevity
  versus performance, with a better-quality seal.  OTOH if the upgrade is
  in performance that usually means increased water flow.  Unless the outer
  housing is substantially larger the cast-in "fins" on the internal
  impeller cannot be that much larger and so I wonder how such an increase
  would be achieved.

    Michael,

    The 'upgraded' pump sold by Moss, Bastuck and BPN all appear to be the
    same:

    <https://www.bpnorthwest.com/water-pump-uprated-bn1-to-bn2.html>

    The new one from AHSpares appears to be different, but also comes with
    a barbed nipple:

t101-to-cht147/premium-water-pump-new-with-34-pulley.aspx>

    Bob

        AsI recall Moss is or was selling "Upgraded" water pumps. =20
        Does anyone know what the "upgrade" consists of?
        Bob, if you buy one I hope you will post what your appraisal and
        experience with the part is--for now I have come to0 regard the
        pumps we are offered as "wear items".

          Bob

              AH Spares, UK is currently advertising water pumps for BN1-2s
              in the AH Magazine- they show their pump in the ad. Good

Michael/All--

When the term "upgraded" is used in the description of a performance part
the clear implication is that is in some way better than the standard
item.
In terms of AH water pumps that ain't saying much as what we are offered is
very prone to early failure, so I sincerely ask what the "upgrade"
consists of?
Bill Bolton used to offer wp's on an exchange basis and he claimed to have
a better seal, which is often the point of failure on the
standard County pumps.

In the second illustration on BPN it shows a (claimed) larger scalloped 
area on the impeller. Sounds reasonable but, according to Moss, it won't 
fit the original heater cutoff valve, which I have and would like to 
keep (one from Moss is almost $180).

Well, they claim to have an 'upgraded' part (guess that's kinda German, 
too ;)

                      style="color:#3333ff;">Thanks and in checking the
                      Moss catalogue this morning I see that in fact
                      they do sell the two side-by-side as you state at
                      $96.00 and $163.00 respectively.  That is an 80%
                      increase in price for the "upgraded" pump and I
                      must wonder what the pump achieves--and how it
                      does it--to justify such an increase.  "Upgrade"
                      might have several meanings and given the
                      propensity of these pumps to fail, perhaps
                      the term describes longevity versus performance,
                      with a better-quality seal.  OTOH if the upgrade
                      is in performance that usually means increased
                      water flow.  Unless the outer housing is
                      substantially larger the cast-in "fins" on the
                      internal impeller cannot be that much larger
                      and so I wonder how such an increase would be
                      achieved.</div>

    In the second illustration on BPN it shows a (claimed) larger
    scalloped area on the impeller. Sounds reasonable but, according to
    Moss, it won't fit the original heater cutoff valve, which I have
    and would like to keep (one from Moss is almost $180).<br clear=3D"none=

Thanks and in
          checking the Moss catalogue&nbsp;this morning I see that in fact
          they do sell the two side-by-side as you&nbsp;state at $96.00 and
          $163.00 respectively.&nbsp; That is an 80% increase in price for
          the "upgraded" pump and I must wonder what the pump
          achieves--and how it does it--to justify such an increase.&nbsp;
          "Upgrade" might have several meanings and given the propensity
          of these pumps to fail, perhaps the&nbsp;term describes longevity
          versus performance, with a better-quality seal.&nbsp; OTOH if the
          upgrade is in performance that usually means increased
          water&nbsp;flow.&nbsp; Unless the outer housing is substantially =
larger
          the cast-in "fins" on the internal impeller cannot be that
          much larger and&nbsp;so I wonder how such an increase would be
          achieved.</div>

            Claims '30% more flow,' BUT--there's always a 'but'--per the
            Moss catalog it will not fit the OEM brass heater line
            valve/nipple. The cheaper one Moss sells supposedly does,
            but best I can tell it's a County product. I've bad
